My streaming-service readies every movie or episode from everything i love, the moment it airs. And gives me a notification that it did. And then i can watch it wherever i want.
Oh wait, i don’t use streaming but sonarr/radarr/prowlarr 😁
This was the case when I checked out crunchyroll years ago, there were so many shows that didn’t have season 1 in my country and well the selection was abysmal to begin with.
“A streaming service only has the second season of a show”
The “rival” streaming service that has the first season of the show is owned by the same corporation so it can double-dip viewers on subscription fees.
my jellyfin server has all of the seasons, including spin-off movies and bonus episodes.
Why go with a server instead of streaming, these days? I’m genuinely curious.
Edit: guys, I’m asking a question. Why the downvotes? Also, I’m not talking about PAID streaming.
Because what I want to watch is spread across 17 different streaming services. Of course you can buy digitally… But then there’s no guarantee they won’t take that back out of your account. Or edit it later on when they decide something is offensive like happened when I bought the office on Vudu.
To be clear, I think they were asking about streaming torrents. Stremio with torrentio addon, for example.
Ooooh. Eh. Never know when the nice quality one might go poof.

How you dare to go against Jellyfin in Lemmy, not even Plex stands a chance /s
To answer your question, you actually can use both, as I do.
Plex for more “obscure” content and to enrich my own TV m3u playlist with DizqueTV and Stremio and Kodi with Real Debrid for everything else, if I have a legal streaming service is because it is being borrowed to me lol, I’m more than served with my means.
Your favorite torrent provider has all the seasons of the show and even the special one that only aired in Japan!
Your favorite torrent site might even have the exclusive remastered version that was only released dubbed in another language remuxed and retimed with the original audio!
Even that lost Christmas special the network wants to pretend doesn’t exist, but we know better.
There’s an exhibitor at my state fair who specializes in hard to find movies/episodes. He’s got a DVD of it than I’m sure is on the level.
TBF you can find that in YouTube in 17 separate pieces these days
Well youtube also has the version of an episode that was recorded on a handycam pointed at a tv… and the guy is talking to the tv.
My streaming service (Jellyfin) always has all the seasons of everything. 😉
streaming service has a random selection of episodes from a show
Way back when Mythbusters was on Netflix, they’d have just a random smattering of episodes and not the complete series. Suxx0red.
Noooo the overarching plot!

Netflix when they didnt have golden wind(season 4 of jojo) for years. You could watch all of them except the fourth season…
Just let me pay for PBS kids without going through Amazon please. I’m a goddamn sustainer ffs. I want my kids binge watching Reading Rainbow. For my kids. Just them. Not because Levar Burton is dreamy. No. Just for the kids. Trust me. If I needed a Levar Burton fix I’d just listen to Levar Burton Reads podcast. His voice is enough for me.
I gave up on Peaky Blinders when for some reason Netflix only had season 1 and 3, which I didn’t realise until I was at the end of season 1.
Oh man, go back and watch the rest of it some day. It’s excellent
Of course theyll pull the first season, how else would the network drive people to go sign up for their separate shitty streaming site that barely works for an additional $9/mo?
Meanwhile your friendly neighborhood pirate has the first, second, third AND fourth seasons, as well as all the extras and the Christmas special, always available all the time…
Wait 'till you hear about when a streaming service has season 1 and 2 in the original language, but only season 1 in English, plus season 1 and 2 (dubs and subs) are merged into a single season. This is space dandy on Hulu (I think it’s Hulu, mighta been Netflix).
I love how everyone here are just saying to pirate. I wonder if someone made one streaming platform to rule them all. I’m talking no ads, no missing parts, no extra fees, no shitty quality streams. Would people still pirate, as they just bearly reached what piracy offers, or would ppl just be happy that they can pay and then actually watch shows?
For games, I still pirate them for a couple of reasons, one of them being monetary. However, if the game is good, I buy the game afterwards to support the developers, and if it’s bad, they won’t see a dime from me. I might be a pirate, but I have honor.
Steam made buying games and making them run on Linux so easy I no longer pirate games. So yes I probably would
Netflix used to be that and everyone bought the hell out of it. Then it enshittened and all the shows moved to proprietary platforms and now you need 19 subscriptions to get a selection of shows you care about. No thanks.
There are powerful lessons to be learned from the successes of Steam and Spotify if only the relevant people look and listen.
When there was basically only Netflix I paid for it and almost completely stopped pirating. Now I have acces to Netflix, Disney, prime(Disney and prime by password sharing) and I again started pirating years ago.
I for sure pay €20 for one service with almost everything, no ads and decent quality. Then I again stop pirating
